theguru Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Covington Catholic (14-0) has been #1 all year, and is currently riding a state best 29 game winning streak. South Warren (14-0) began the season at #3, but ascended to #2 after conquering Bowling Green. Both teams know a thing or two about running clocks, each team having posted numerous mercy rule scores this season. This is the best possible matchup 5A could offer, and it has all the makings of a classic. http://bluegrasspreps.com/ky-football-high/5a-state-championship-373066.html Covington Catholic Colonels Record: 14-0 (29 game winning streak) Ranking: #1 Points Scored: 576 (41.1 per game) Points Allowed: 138 (9.8 per game) Running Clock Victories: 9 Statistical Leaders Passing: Caleb Jacob (2,643 yards, 27 TDs/6 ints.)

Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Having some technology issues here today at the game. I'll chime in as I can, but I think 'Ru is going to handle updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguru Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Hey everyone, I just talked to @Colonels_Wear_Blue and phone access from the grocery sack may be hit or miss today. I am going to spout off like always but I strongly encourage anyone on the site today that is watching the game to please add your thoughts as often as possible.

theguru Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Steve Bertram and Max Godby sp? on the call. Can anyone help me out with both spellings to be sure, I want to get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMayCare Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I've said it before, but it bears repeating... This is the best possible championship game we could have in 5A. CovCath put to rest any talk of Highlands challenging them in the east, and South Warren dominated the west, including stalwart Bowling Green. This is crystal clear #1 vs. #2.

theguru Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 South Warren is in black helmets, white tops and black pants. CovCath is in blue helmets, blue tops, and white pants. The video broadcast appears to be 4 or 5 minutes behind real time at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
